Bursaries and Financial Aids
The College offers a number of bursaries and financial aid to local students who cannot get sufficient financial assistance under the Tertiary Student Finance Scheme – Publicly Funded Programmes (TSFS) provided by the Government. As College bursaries and financial aid are a supplement to Government assistance, students are encouraged to apply for the TSFS first.
